Alex's Fruit and Produce
. . . and Dimitri's
Wildflower Restaurant.
THE DEEP-ROOTED
fallacy among many non-
Jewish people still remains
.. that to be a good Jewish
d. elicatessen restaurant, it
has to smell like one .. .
whatever that means.
Couldn't be more false .. .
Back in the old days, an
odor came from brine in
which corned beef was cook-
ing . . . and cut salamis
hanging (nickel a shtickel)
. . . In isolated instances,
many years ago, open
barrels were filled with
brine and cucumbers that
became pickles . . . Health

laws are much more strin-
gent today . . . and Jewish
delicatessen-restaurants
have no odor by which to go.
So many more false tales
about Jewish delicatessens
. . . enough to write a book
. . . The conceptions of a true
Jewish delicatessen restau-
rant may vary somewhat
. . . but for certain there are
standard salient things that
never change . . . and for the
most part they are excep-
tionally clean.
DELI DALLY DEPT.
. . . Detroit delicatessens
still rank among the na-
tion's best . . . No, Rascal
House here wasn't ever a
deli . . . It's the present site
of Golden Mushroom, 10
Mile and Southfield . . . No
more Elaine & Larry's in
A & P Shopping Center,
Nine Mile and Coolidge .. .
It is now another Greek-
style restaurant.
Those gourmet dishes at
Deli Unique, Greenfield
and 10, aren't found at too
many delicatessens in
America . . . and it's also a
good deli . . . Max Horens-
tein, former member of trio
Brothers and owner of
Max's where BDJ now
stands on Southfield and 13
Mile, is still looking to get
back into the reataurant ac-
tion . . . He'll be a good one
for the proper offer.
Corned Beef King opened
at Northland where
Brothers used to be . . . Hy
Horenstein, Coolidge and
10 Mile, is oldest active
local deli restaurant owner
. . . Lou's on McNichols sells
more corned beef than any-
one according to word .. .
Still looking for a bar-le-duc
sandwich like Darby's used
to have . . . so simple yet
such difficulty to find .. .
grape jelly and cream
cheese.
Modern Delicatessen,
Fenkell and Livernois is
still owned by Dick and
George Gunsberg . . . Sam
Lerman, boss of Ben &
George's, Seven Mile and
Middlebelt, has made his
spot a Livonia stalwart of
goodness since those many
years ago when he bought
the name from Ben Epstein
and George Fink, who used
to have it on Dexter.
Backstage Deli on Wood-
ward has gotten so much
better . . . Remember Bolo-
tin and Levine? Fredson's?
Leon and Lefkofsky?
Leinoffs? Liberman's? Lef-
kofsky in the Broadway
Market? Billy's? Boesky's?
Wilson's? Nate's?
Woman in booth at Bread
Basket, Lincoln Center on
Greenfield, knitting alone
in booth during peak lunch
hour . . . while standing on-
lookers boiled . . . Gal fi-
nally told by Bennett
Terebelo, owner with Ron
Forman, "We don't rent
space. We sell food." . . , She
left in a huff . . . but has re-
turned.
LOOKS LIKE Orange
Roughy has "been dis-
covered" ... The delicious
mild fish from New Zealand
is cropping up in more and
more places . . . Jakk's,
Greenfield and 10 Mile,
serves it.

It is the rule of rules, and
the general law of all laws,
that every person should

observe the fashions of the
